Geneva is situated between the Jura Range and the Alps on the western end of Lake Geneva. Capital of Peace is one of its names— the European headquarters of the United Nations lies here in Palais des Nations. Another worthy name for this city with a humanitarian tradition(人道主義傳統(tǒng))and international character is the World’s Smallest Metropolis. Parks, splendid stores and lively streets in the old part of town and its 2000-year history wait to be discovered.

The Jet d’Eau together with the Flower Watch are the main attractions every year for the tourists visiting Geneva. The Jet d’Eau has become the symbol(象征)of Geneva for a long time.

Eight 13,500-watt projectors light the grand column(圓柱)of the fountain in the evening, from early March until the second Sunday of October. The Flower Watch, which was created at the edge of the English Garden in 1955, reminds us about that Geneva is the birthplace of the Swiss clock and watch making, and that this industry has become internationally famous, as well through the quality of the watches as through their beautiful appearance.

Playing basketball isn’t ladylike. That’s what Jewell Chapman’s high school headmaster told her in 1961 when he was against the girls’ basketball program.

“We were very discouraged, ” said Chapman, a forward(前鋒)for her high school team of Des Moines.

Nearly 50 years later, Chapman is back on the playground. She’s 62 and plays for “Hot Pink Grannies”, joining about 10 other women on a team whose uniforms are black trousers and hot pink socks. They play in the Iowa Granny Basketball League.

It’s one of dozens of basketball leagues for women over 50 that have arisen across the country. For some, it’s a chance to exercise and meet people; for others, it’s a once – refused chance to make up.

“You see more and more elderly women’s teams taking part in state and national competitions,” said Michael Rogers, a professor in sports studies at Wichita State University. “In the future it will be something common to have leagues like this.”

Yearly surveys by the National Sporting Goods Association show the number of women aged 55 and older who play basketball at least 50 times a year has grown from 16,000 in 1995 to nearly 131,000 ten years later.

The women on the Hot Pink Grannies are good – natured but competitive when game time comes.

“I think I’m tough” says Colleen Pulliam, 69, showing off her strong arms at her challengers in a game against “Strutters”, known for their bright yellow socks.

Granny Basketball Leagues and similar groups spread quickly through much of the country, including California, Louisiana, New Mexico, Pennsylvania and Washington, D.C.

1.Which is right about Chapman?

A.She thinks playing basketball isn’t ladylike.

C.it is chance to earn a reputation

D.it is chance to compete for medals

3.Who is probably a player of “Hot Oink Grannies”?

A.Des Moines.        B.Colleen Pulliam.  C.Michael Rogers.  D.Strutters.

4.Which of the following statements is true?

A.Some elderly women play basketball with the purpose of getting wealthy.

B.Granny Basketball Leagues have spread all over the USA.

C.The women on the Hot Pink Grannies are good – natured and less competitive.

D.The number of women aged 55 and older who play basketball has greatly increased.

Sixteen-year-old Karlos Dearmans’s future is looking much brighter than be might have imagined. “I’ve always been into bikes, but never thought I’d end up working with them,” he says. “This scheme has changed my life.”

Karlos is learning to refurbish(翻新) old bicycles in the workshop of ReCycle Bikes, a local community(社區(qū)) charity in Sheffied, which has a contract with the city council to provide training opportunities for young people aged 14 to 16, particularly those dropping out of school.

“It’s about engaging youngsters with education and you thtraining by teaching them work and life skills,” explains Des Pearce, workshop training manager. “These young people have so much potential, but often don’t realize it.”

Established in 2001, ReCycle Bikes repairs bicycles donated by the public, which, once restored, are sold for £20. Abandoned bikes supplied by the council ensure a steady flow of bikes, but a recently formed partnership with Sheffield University should improve further the prospects of the young mechanics.

  “The student population presents a large and ready market,” says Pearce. “So we approached the university last year and offered to host bike sales on the campus. They thought it was a great idea, and agreed to supplement our council funding. This means we can train youngsters to repair extra 500 bikes over three years.”

  Having set up ReCycle Bikes on his own, Pearce now has the staff and resources to track the career development of those who have passed through his workshop. “However, in the past we depended on the evidence of personal accounts from the schools because of lack of human and material resources,” he says.

  That most of the teenagers enjoy the work is, according to Pearce, easily explained. “Most kids have ridden a bike and know how to oil a chain or mend a puncture. As low-cost transport, cycling gives the young and old a sense of freedom and independence, and the impact on their well-being is immense. Add to that a growing concern for the environment, and it’s no surprise that bike sales are on the increase.”

72.What do we know about ReCycle Bikes?

A.It is a popular brand of bikes which are sold in Sheffield.

B.It is a local community charity that provides training opportunities for reenagers.

C.It is a contract signed between a local community charity and the city council.

D.It is a training program offered by the city council to those excluded from school.

73.How did ReCycle Bikes run at the beginning?

A.By repairing bicycles donated by the public and selling them.

B.By donations from the public and Sheffield University.

C.By selling bicycles supplied by the city council.

D.By tuition fees from kids aged between 14 and 16.

74.ReCycle Bikes has formed a partnership with Sheffield University because ____________.

A.students at Sheffield University assure a large and ready market

B.Sheffield University offers many mechanical teachers to ReCycle Bikes

C.Sheffield University donates a lot of money to ReCycle Bikes

D.teenagers at ReCycle Bikes can study at Sheffield University

75.ReCycle Bikes depended on information from the schools in the past because     .

A.the schools could give accurate information to improve its service

B.students disliked telling the truth when asked about their personal ideas

C.ReCycle Bikes didn’t have the ability to track students’ career development.

D.most of the training organizations did it this way at that moment
